[Day 155] Sunflowers always face the sun

-

So like. If sunflowers always face the sun and the majority of the sunflowers on scar's shawl are on his back and on the side does that mean scar still trusts grian with his back or he turned his back on him rejected him moved on or sometimes they wish they are by each other's sides again or are they allies or enemies this will be the death of m <- epic shower thoughts

PVRIS  — "Oil and Water"

"If you give me your cold shoulders I'll bravе the storm and keep my arms wide open We're oil and water, it's true But I still fall into you"

If nautical nonsense be something you wish 🎶

only at the Moby-Dick reading will you hear people randomly singing both the Dave Malloy Moby-Dick musical and The Mountain Goats… the only other time i’ve been surrounded by this many fellow queer was The Mountain Goats concert.

Alright Copyist.

We are alone now, tell us what is bothering you.

The Copyist glances at her over-eager younger sister.

The Copyist: I am not so gauche as to directly reveal very personal secrets. Find a way to get me to answer indirectly. What are considered "teenagers" by your species are not well known for keeping secrets.

The Cataloger: Aww! No fair!! I can totally keep a secret. You didn't know until just a few minutes ago that I use my glasses to sass father without him knowing.

The Charmer: You're a smart kid, I'm sure if the mortals find a way to get her to reveal her secret indirectly you can figure it out.

if anyone has any tips for growing out long curly hair (3bish) without it looking shit pls let me know

THE BUILDERS ARE GONE YIPPEEEE

aw drat it is 3 AM and my friends will not see me tossing their ocs into The Blender (it's fine they are immune to being blendered due to their respective cool powers). but also it is 3 AM and i want to get blorbo thoughts combo attacked.

anyway feel free to punt me into space if this is a stupid thing to say, and also i do not know if this is Actually Possible that is one of the bits of logistics that i have not asked about, but i would like it if there was a one of chalia's kids who was an alex.

for context. chalia bloodstone is @thefinalvoid's extremely cool little guy, full of rage, possessing an eldritch horror that is in turn eating most of that rage, immortal and doesn't like it, has lots of kids with most of the gods in her millieu, cares very deeply about those kids and everyone younger than her (which is most people) despite not having the memory space in her technically-still-human brain to remember that the kids exist most of the time, and the alexes are @betweenlands's extremely cool little guys, a multiverse-spanning scattershot of redheads perpetually haunted by an eldritch horror of never-ending music.

also i think this would be fun because this kid would quite possibly have four things you could consider their parents depending on how you count them. chalia, who can't be in the same universe as them until they have incubated for a while and probably won't remember them but will care about them a lot anyway; hailey, the aforementioned "eldritch horror eating most of that rage" who contributed chalia's genetic material to this arrangement (look, their possession setup is complicated) and also can't be in the same universe until they're done incubating but isn't really a fan of kids; whoever chalia boned it down with, probably a god of some variety but still the most normal element in this arrangement statistically; and the eternal song, the aforementioned "eldritch horror of never-ending music" and not exactly a parent but a thing that hovers protectively/territorially around the kid at all times. normal family dynamic!!!

reason: please

thank you. feel free to punt me into space or to discuss this amongst yourselves or to discuss it at me. thanks.

Shoutout to disabled folks who can't maintain their hygiene properly. Who can't shower every day, or every other day, or even once a week. Who wear the same clothes until they can't bear the smell. Who don't wash their armpits or their face every day or even ever outside of showering. Who don't take care of their hair. Who don't shave. Who can't do all the things you're "supposed to" do and have to deal with people saying the bare minimum of personal hygiene is something they might not even manage on the best of days. You are enough and you shouldn't be made to feel guilty about your limitations.

(This post is NOT about people going outside without washing their hands and risking other people's health, if you can't wash your hands please don't put others in danger. Please don't derail this post.)
